Incubus - Trouble In 421 Lyrics






The evening began as a positive swaret
and my abode was 4-2-0 G.
But little did I know that in the very next apartment
there'd be trouble on the brew for me!
Ubiquitous I wish I could be
because the clock cuts short my own day!
One hundred things to do before I rest my sore ass
upon the cushion that supports my array!
Can this be?
Trouble!!!
So if I may, slip you a tip.
You'd best stay away from 4-2-1.
Trouble!!!
So get high the green way.
So get by the green way...yes!
I knocked upon their door
in hopes of bidding them their welcome
and instead I was caught by an eye.
His pupil was wide open
kinda like a liquor barn at 3:00.
It was indoubadoubly dose derived.
It was then that they took me
and shined their light between my eyes.
He said "What are ya new?
Why are you here? What's the catch?
Why not explain in clear? Why you're peakin around?!"
I wish I could've just kept to my own.
My hospitality has been too well spent and I've paid my rent!
I should've kept my thoughts, on who might've been inside
so that my mind could sit and delude my pride!
I beg my common sense to keep my
neighbor out away from my front door
until i find a way
to hide myself from those in 4-2-1.......one
..one away from the good one.

Incubus Trouble In 421 Comments
  1. P.... S....

    2:34 so raw & organic musicianship of Mike Einziger& Brandon, they nailed that oriental scale in a spectacular way. That solo is legendary tbh

  2. B.... G....

    Anyone else listen to this song on April 21st?

  3. k.... p....

    Old Rhcp 😈😈😈😈

  4. E.... D....

    Es demasiado Harold Of The Rocks xD

  5. M.... ....

    2019 anyone?? Sounds like primus kinda

    M.... ....

    like Harold Of The Rocks

    M.... ....

    @Everyday Deckienson similar song structure

  6. I.... O....

    this songs that good im commenting again!!!! hahaha. The guitar, bass, drums, vocals is fucking sick especially since they were only just out of high school such ashame they turned into such pussies a few albums later :(

  7. J.... D....

    anyone 2018?

    J.... D....

    Me, one of the best songs from the Old Incubus.

  8. b.... ....

    timeless!

  9. R.... 1....

    I made a bass lesson for the slap part if anyone's interested :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6T2S2zvoxE

  10. I.... U....

    I see a lot of people hate on there new stuff but in my opinion these guys still got it. I saw them a month ago in El Paso and it was the best live concert I’ve seen.

    I.... U....

    They got girlfriends after S.C.I.E.N.C.E lol that's what happened. Then after Morning View.... It was all downhill.

    I.... U....

    @NikoLetsGoBowling i saw them 3 weeks ago, shit show, nothing compared to what i saw back in the day

    I.... U....

    I saw them 2 or three years ago, it was decent. They played a song from S.C.I.E.N.C.E. at each show I went to. They closed their tour alone at the Joint at the Hard Rock in Vegas. That set was phenomenal and extremely intimate. Brandon also had a long conversation with me about water and conservation, then said hi to me in passing later that night. It’s been a couple years, but I still think they got it, just not the same inspiration... I second the girlfriend idea... my last relationship did a number on my creativity.

  11. M.... ....

    Amazing guitar solo!

  12. J.... V....

    Happy incubus day!

  13. J.... S....

    2:06 to party (:

  14. N.... M....

    Why this song is not in Spotify?

  15. A.... S....

    Mr bungle?

  16. I.... O....

    why couldn't they just stay the same style as the first 2 albums? soo much better then what came after!!!

  17. M.... W....

    But were they only getting high the green way lol

  18. D.... K....

    421 my bday XD

  19. B.... H....

    My related videos are littered with old incubus and Björk, lol wtf

  20. d.... ....

    I never realized until now how much this sounds like something from Mr. Bungle's first album. I miss this version of Incubus. I saw them live in the mid 90s and they blew me away.

    d.... ....

    dickrobot yeah, was like a RHCP/Mr bungle

    d.... ....

    A mi me recuerda a Harold Of The Rocks... de Primus

    d.... ....

    Reminds me of Patton with primus, which should happen lol

  21. Z.... V....

    This album is good, but I honestly don't see how people think this is their best album.

    Z.... V....

    Sink beneath the line.. is the sole reason why for me. That song rips.

    Z.... V....

    San Holo kinda fell off after light grenades but I can still appreciate these guys and there growth as musicians. when I hurd science I was like: fuck yeah, funky as fuck! then make yourself dropped, and it was a completely different sound... still a badass band but I wish they would have kept it funky metal for a few more albums.

    Z.... V....

    Cause have you been a psycho before on psilocybin?

    Z.... V....

    Well you have upset fans from this era that wanted a new Faith No More or Primus...yeah I get expanding your horizons musically. I'd say I personally lost interest in Incubus after Make Yourself. To each their own tho...no fight here just want to elaborate. For the record this is not their best effort, but insanely good for a bunch of teenagers.

  22. I.... ....

    anyone 2016?

    I.... ....

    Still going strong.

    I.... ....

    Isadora Herrera 2018

  23. G.... M....

    Sonzera

  24. T.... F....

    And now they suck...

    T.... F....

    which influences were they copying in this album? or in the other ones? science sounds way more experimental than light grenades lol

    T.... F....

    bc every band ever made still sounds exactly like their first album....

    T.... F....

    Jake Recktenwald they would need dirk back for that.* didn’t read the comments before I posted this.

    T.... F....

    Mr. Bungle

    T.... F....

    WTF kind of name is TURD? Seems fitting, given the disdain for incubus. Troll.

  25. H.... ....

    Reminds me of Mr. Bungle!

  26. I.... ....

    No neighbours, they were just phantom paranoia in paper thin walls, that's why I gave up Mary Jane for Jim Beam and antie Datura T.

    I.... ....

    +ihavedraids Damn Hardcore shit that datura is, Not a fan at all of deliriant's. Tryed them once and would never go threw that again.

  27. s.... h....

    Sounds exactly like Harold of the rocks

    s.... h....

    It really does

    s.... h....

    But only if we can bring a friend...his name is Harold.

  28. C.... M....

    This is one of my favorite guitar solos ever, Enzinger shreds it

    C.... M....

    Sink beneath the line bro... that is where it is at.

  29. B.... ....

    First heard that solo about 12 years ago and damn if it still isn't amazing to listen to now.

  30. A.... S....

    Beware, verbal masturbation ahead \/\/\/

  31. b.... ....

    <3 thank you sir you have spoken my mind so perfectly
    all i can add is that incubus seems to have some grasp of lyrical significance, instead of assuming (as primus seems to) that merely coasting by with omnipresent slap bass, and employing album titles such as "Sailing on the sea of cheese" is sufficient to constitute music... an assumption with which I must respectfully (but firmly, and with a definitively raised eyebrow) disagree.

    Incubus: 1
    Primus: 0

    b.... ....

    bspektor you dumb, almost all of primus has lyrical meaning, not all but most, what do you think too many puppies or southbound packaderym is about?

  32. b.... ....

    If we lived in a perfect world, this comment would have more likes than permitted by the mathematics of binary computing.

    If God were to make a phonecall (hypothetically), and the cellphone that received the resultant call played any ringtone OTHER than the "Trouble in 421" solo, the person who that phone belonged to would be instantly obliterated. SO IT SHALL BE

  33. x.... ....

    That solo makes me cream in my pants. Dear God...

  34. s.... ....

    I cant believe they apologies for this album in the cover

  35. B.... H....

    I have to throw it out there I am not the first to point that out. And in terms of vocals, Boyd was heavily influenced by first and foremost Mike Patton, Layne Staley, Anthony Keidis just to name a few. If you know all 3 of these voices you can spot at least one of them in each song off Fungus Amongus.

  36. c.... ....

    anyone else notice the solo starting @3:23 sound very similar to the solo in 'groundhogs day' by primus?

  37. c.... ....

    you are right on. as a huge primus fan i am enjoying this much more than science.

  38. a.... ....

    NU METAL! DEFTONES!

  39. s.... ....

    @WildBillHickums I like a lot of nu metal way more than primus, but I prefere this, which is closer to funk/jazz/metal/fusion to what primus are....which incidentally ... primus sucks!

  40. B.... H....

    @sacredgeometry if you like primus, yes these songs would appear to be the best, if you like the nu metal scene, S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is your best bet.

  41. s.... ....

    @WildBillHickums sad isnt it, these are their best songs.

  42. B.... H....

    @wildchance5 they hate these songs now

  43. C.... W....

    amazing... just fucking amazing

  44. P.... ....

    @wildchance5 then all their fangirls would run away from the musicianship.

  45. A.... ....

    Early Incubus does sound reminiscent of RHCP, Primus and Mr Bungle (to which they even admit the influence of these bands) But the thing is that Incubus transformed frm being a cut -copy sort of band and made themselves into their own. Their new stuff aint anything like this or SCIENCE but Incubus are incubus and anythin they make will always be badass!!

  46. R.... S....

    Their early stuff sounds like Primus more then RHCP.

    R.... S....

    mr bungle

  47. C.... C....

    @vosmannn Not really... I have a high tolerance for certain medication, so Advil and Tylenol don't do anything for me. And I only touch soda if I need a quick dose of sugar (and don't touch coffee at all)

  48. J.... V....

    @Ryoku1989 just to be a smart-ass... have you ever drank soda or coffee? that contains caffeine which is a drug.. or tylenol or advil etc..

  49. W.... ....

    @Ryoku1989 Ah. I agree w/ that completely then just to clarify

  50. C.... C....

    @Antiinc Yes; I have no intention on ever doing drugs. idc if others do, but I don't need it

  51. W.... ....

    @Ryoku1989 are you saying that's a good thing?

  52. V.... ....

    some people READ too much

  53. C.... C....

    @SardoNoumspa I haven't ever touched drugs

  54. f.... ....

    @wildchance5 they played azwethinkweiz relatively recently

  55. w.... ....

    @cherryorchards i know they'll never play these songs ever again other than take me to your leader, but still it be nice thats pretty much what i was getting at

  56. N.... ....

    Everyone experiments drugs! Shut up you haven't!

  57. N.... ....

    R.H.C.P, Mr Bungle & Primus inspired. Oh... & some drugs ^__~
    Now you have one of the funkiest farking albums of all time!!!

    l..l (o^_____^o) l..l
    INCUBUS BABY!!!

  58. E.... ....

    2:10 - gives me chills. Best part in the song

  59. E.... ....

    God, I love this song

  60. p.... o....

    starting from 4:02 through is so fucking badass!

  61. I.... j....

    Love how the guitar solo goes from funky to full on George Lynch and then to outer space.

    Very cool song....thanks for uploading.

  62. w.... ....

    if they only knew just how creative we think these songs were, then they'd start playing these songs again

  63. L.... E....

    Haha funny with room 420

  64. A.... ....

    Thanks for the tunes Thrillerboy! <3
